Hello,
this is a probably basic question, but the following code doesn't
compile:
----
\setupbackgrounds[page][background={Bkg}]
\defineoverlay[Bkg][\useMPgraphic{Bkg}]
\startuseMPgraphic{Bkg}
externalfigure "hacker.png";
\stopuseMPgraphic
\starttext
Ahoj
\stoptext
----
with:
"
picture
! Isolated expression.
<to be read again>
;
<*> externalfigure "hacker.png";
;
I couldn't find an `=' or `:=' after the
expression that is shown above this error message,
so I guess I'll just ignore it and carry on.
"
I just want to insert a picture from within MP code. What am I doing
wrong?
Best regards,
Lukas
